Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: I went today to pay fees at the traffic department and found someone at the door who pays these fees via the automatic teller machine, so I give him 20 riyals in exchange for this service.

Answer:
This is riba (usury or interest). He lent you money with an increase. This is not permissible. Yes.
